| | Janet Jackson Rhythm Nation 1814 CD Janet Jackson Discography of CDs
 (12 Customer Reviews)
Little did you know that the American national anthem, "God Bless America", was written in 1814. Janet did, and she sets out in RHYTHM NATION to dish out a bit of "let's all work together for a better world and improve our way of life" type thing. This vein continues for a number of tracks, and admirable though it is, she sounds so much more convincing singing a good old-fashioned love song. The Jacksons were meant to dance, not to sermonize. That said, "Miss You Much", "Lonely" and "Come Back To Me:" are fabulous. Slick, sweet soul sung and played perfectly.

Janet Jackson Rhythm Nation 1814 Songs Rhythm Nation 1814 Music Review Average Rating: (3.8 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews Good CD
This CD is pretty good, though I do have to say that I enjoy the first half beter than the second. The songs seem to shift from the state of reality now...to a hopeful future. Maybe just my interpretation; could be wrong. But if you like Janet or songs that are in your face, here you go.
